Quadruple Bottom Line
Effective transformation involves addressing spiritual, social, economic, and environmental conditions.
Living Intentionally
In order for spiritual, social, economic and environmental transformation to take place within a believer’s local community, it is essential for each Christian to be intentional about personally impacting the Quadruple Bottom Line.
Each personal objective should have specific measures designed to evaluate the degree to which a person has succeeded in achieving that objective.
Accountability
Share your Personal Kingdom Impact Plan with another person (or people) and review/update it quarterly.

What could we accomplish?
We are a network of Christian business men and women who are using our gifts, talents, skills and experience to change the world.
This includes macro, micro, small, and medium enterprises manufactures, retailers, franchises and other models in developed and developing countries.
We assist each other by consulting, coaching, advising, and mentoring in order to help develop business models and future entrepreneurs, and by investing in emerging businesses.
We use business as mission to bring holistic transformation and provide wealth creation in the places that need it most.
As a network, we value:
- Excellence: utilizing the best people, methods, and use of resources
- Integrity: dealing with honesty in all matters
- Relationships: developing people to realize God’s giftings in them
- Innovation: striving for exploration and creative solutions that transform communities
- Generosity: seeking to share what we have with others
- Giving: realizing that we receive when we give to others and learn as we interact and collaborate
- Accountability: submitting in accountability to members and partners for actions and the most effective use of time and resources
- Sustainability: creating sustainable enterprises that will grow and increase contribution
- Growth: focusing on exponential/viral growth and believing that good business models will self-replicate
